Atheists don’t hold that religions are mostly wrong.

There isn’t enough time to study everything in detail, but there is the option of not having an opinion about what you haven’t’ studied.
This sounds like an ideology wearing a fig leaf. When we study the issue, do we start with a blank slate, or do we have prior beliefs about facts, values and goals? Maybe you have a different interpretation of the word “ideology” than I do, but that sounds like ideology to me, and irreducible
